Daring To Take Up Space

Heal. A very minor critique & more just mentioned as it’s very different than any other poetry I normally read & review. The language has a simple elegance to it that isn’t too technical or over-wrought, so it’s pretty readable for any type of reader or even people that don’t read often. It’s a perfect book to read & refer back to as one needs on the bumpy journey that is self-love, self-care, self-acceptance, etc.

The book itself is divided into four sections, “Combatting Shame,” “Connection,” “Hope and Resilience,” & “Growth and Affirmation. My one critique is a very minor one. Then again, it’s not from the perspective of a singular poet writing about their own experience.

Love your whole self (on good days & less successful days). “Daring to Take Up Space” by Daniel Koepke is a book of poetics that works as therapy, advice, &/or self-help toward self-acceptance & better mental health. Cleanse yourself of shame. It’s a very positive book, but it let’s the reader know that getting self-acceptance is a journey.
